Stranded With The Mountain Man by Aislinn Kearns Released: March 22, 2018 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I love a reclusive hero. I'm weak for it! So when I saw this book mentioned on Twitter, I jumped on it. The hero has lived in a very remote mountain cabin since he was fifteen - and he's twenty-nine now. You know this means virgin!! (also tipped me off when he said he hasn't had a visitor in all that time too). When Elijah is out hunting and witnesses a small Continue Reading

Review: Bad Business by Nicole Edwards
Bad Business by Nicole Edwards (Bad Boys of Sports #2) Publication Date: March 27, 2018 Contemporary/Sports Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: A blush reddens her skin from her chest to her cheeks, but she doesn’t move. “I’m gonna worship you,” I tell her, kissing her jaw. “And when I’m done making you come all over my face, I plan to fuck you until neither of us can breathe.” I like sports romance and combine that with a player getting involved with the owner’s daughter Continue Reading
Review: Escort by Skye Warren
Escort by Skye Warren Contemporary Romance Released: March 18, 2018 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I'm always game for escort books.
